Thaksin Has Not Been Seriously Ill At All: Rangsiman

[webfact]

 

DE FACTO PHEU THAI BOSS-cum-convict on parole Thaksin Shinawatra has definitely not been as seriously ill as falsely claimed, concluded an opposition lawmaker  Thursday (Mar 28).

 

During today’s interpellation in the House of Representatives, Move Forward MP Rangsiman Rome charged that the deposed prime minister had not fallen “seriously ill” as the authorities had repeatedly claimed since he looked quite normal and had enough stamina to engage in daily activities immediately after being released on parole from Police Hospital and was evidently seen going places and mingling with people during a recent visit to his home province of Chiang Mai.

 

Neither had Thaksin’s extended stay in a private ward at the hospital justified tight security measures in the face of purported threats of assassination as earlier claimed by the authorities though attempted bomb attacks on his life had reportedly occurred over the last decade and a half until he fled the country in the face of the 2006 coup, according to the Move Forward MP.

 

Rangsiman was engaged in the House interpellation with Justice Minister Thavi Sodsong over Thaksin’s clinical health conditions which, the Move Forward MP said, obviously contradicted the earlier claims by Corrections Department and Police Hospital officials of his having been “critically ill” throughout a six-month period at the hospital until he was released on parole last month.

LOL, Everyone knew that from get go ....

Is anyone other than those who have a vested interest or brain-dead, surprised?

Of course he hasn't been ill, this entire thing has been staged, and it's has been created only for the most naive amongst us. The vast majority understand exactly what's been going on, a deal was cut between the Army and PT to allow the Army to steal the election and install PT as the non-democratically appointed administrator, with the Army pulling all the strings, again. And in exchange Toxic Thaksin was given total immunity. It's likely a deal was also cut for his daughter, and it's just a matter of time until she returns.

Every minuet detail of his show and dance return was crafted and agreed upon

well before he boarded the plane, and one can safely assume that some big names

were in on this circus act that unashamedly was played  in front of the nation,

and now, the charade continues...

[stoner]

this country and culture is seriously ill. 

[Homburg]

Politics in Thailand seems to have better scriptwriters than most of Hollywood nowadays.

Not amongst 'US", simply the local populace. They are so accustomed to being lied to they hardly comment.

He was sick as a dog for the first 48hrs of his sentence then he seemed to perk up a bit 🤔

He quickly deteriorated as he was moved from his seat on his private jet.

The jangeling of keys in locks can have that dramatic effect 🤔

His sister, not his daughter!

Seriously amusing would be a more apt description.

It was all a charade... and Thailand as usual let it play-out.

[thesetat]

Am sure those who participated in this farce will vehemently deny that he was not critically ill. And many Thais will believe it. 

Given his miraculous recovery, the instant he was released and at home. I really want to know who were the doctors and why they do not have a private doctors office for me to visit should i become critically ill. I want a miraculous recovery also.

Not obvious that that's still the case.

 

eg If the gay marriage change gets thru the Senate, that would suggest the Army is no longer breathing heavily in the backgound. Or maybe at least holding its breath ...

[Artisi]

Just accept Thainess and move along, for those with the smallest amount of grey matter are fully aware of Thainess and understand. 

[newbee2022]

Wow, really surprising news. 

He was not I'll? 

Scandalous 😂

It's the Thai air; he has risked further 'illness' by going to Chiang Mai.

[Red Forever]

Interested to see what medical qualifications this politician has.

Now I feel silly for sending that "Get Well" card.....

The "tell."  The dude's "weak-heart" is in his neck.  🤔 Hummm.

Agreed. I attribute this as the result of overthrowing an elected government by military coup. Understand, this does not address if there were valid reasons for charges being brought but rather, the result of the use of a military coup as a means of dealing with an elected government. Yep, one can infer that I think this same thinking can/will be applied to the military coup overthrowing the Yingluck elected government. Bottom line ... up to Thai citizens ... I am just an interested expat retiree residing in Thailand.

I think it goes a lot higher than that. That very, vast, income of 'His' could have suffered criticism, had Pita not been ousted.
